Late at night, the faint moonlight couldn't penetrate the dense branches and leaves.
In the dark forest, an increasingly large orange-red phantom swayed wildly like a ghost.
Following this, with the changes in the Fire Shadow, Huo Wu's body became identical to the shadow, and began to emit a crystalline light.
At the same moment, Huo Wu could feel the pain constantly lessening, even though the Soul Power input from the Soul Ring had reached its limit.
At this moment, Huo Wu noticed a certain change occurring in her body.
This feeling was as if some kind of restriction within her body had been broken.
At the same time, Huo Wu's perception abilities underwent a tremendous change.
From her internal organs to her skin, from her blood to her muscles, Huo Wu had never been so clearly aware of her own body.
Through the perfect perception of her body, Huo Wu discovered that her body and Martial Soul were greedily absorbing the massive energy of the Soul Ring.
The originally thick stream of Soul Power instantly shrank by half, and the swelling pain in Huo Wu's meridians, which had been causing her great suffering, was immediately relieved.
Observing Huo Wu's changes from the outside, Huo Wu Xie fell into a state of confusion.
In his perception, Huo Wu's life aura and the aura of flames were both soaring at an alarming rate.
He wasn't sure if Huo Wu's change was a good thing or a bad thing.
This was a scene he had never anticipated or witnessed before.
However, he was certain that this change had started from Huo Wu's Martial Soul.
As for Huo Wu's Fire Shadow Martial Soul, Huo Wu Xie wasn't clear about its specific details, so he was in a state of bewilderment.
In fact, Huo Wu's Fire Shadow Martial Soul was a peculiar type of Martial Soul that used the body as its Martial Soul.
It belonged neither to the Beast Martial Soul nor to the Tool Martial Soul.
It wasn't even an Element Martial Soul similar to the Mars Martial Soul.
The biggest characteristic of a Body Martial Soul was that its control ability far surpassed that of ordinary Martial Souls.
If what was awakened was any part of the body, the Soul Master could even control muscles, bones, and blood.
However, the Fire Shadow Martial Soul that Huo Wu awakened was an extremely special case among Body Martial Souls.
Its special nature lay in two points.
The first point.
Generally speaking, apart from the brain and eyes, which represent mental attributes, awakening a Body Martial Soul would not come with other elemental attributes.
However, Huo Wu's shadow possessed the extremely rare fire element attribute.
Inheriting the Body Martial Soul's extremely strong control, Huo Wu controlled flames as if she were controlling her own body.
No, or rather, the flames had become a part of her body.
The power of a Body Martial Soul was related to the importance of the awakened part.
For example, Body Martial Souls of regenerable parts such as hair and nails were weaker than indispensable parts such as the brain and internal organs.
And standing at the very top of all Body Martial Souls was the body itself.
That is, a Martial Soul that awakened the entire body.
However, what Huo Wu awakened was her own shadow.
This was also the second special point.
The shadow was a reflection of the body, dependent on the body, yet independent of it.
Some people would think that the shadow was very important to a person, while others would think it was not important.
However, if a person lost their shadow, it meant that this person no longer existed.
Therefore, in a sense, the shadow was even scarcer than the body itself.
A Body Martial Soul like the Fire Shadow, in addition to possessing extremely strong control abilities, also had characteristics that other Martial Souls did not possess.
A Soul Master who possesses a Body Martial Soul can also undergo a Martial Soul Second Awakening.
It is different from the Martial Soul Awakening ceremony at the age of six.
Martial Soul Second Awakening is a transformation that only a very few Soul Masters can experience.
After the Second Awakening, the Soul Master's Martial Soul will undergo incredible changes.
And what Huo Wu is currently undergoing is the Martial Soul Second Awakening.
In a desperate situation on the verge of death, Huo Wu's willpower prompted an unexpected evolution of her Martial Soul and body.
Under the pressure of a life-or-death crisis, Huo Wu's inner potential was completely released.
The evolution of the Fire Shadow Martial Soul fed back into her body, driving a qualitative change in Huo Wu's physical form as well.
However, the evolution of her body was accompanied by immense consumption.
Fortunately, the vast energy of the Soul Ring became nourishment for her body.
A life-or-death crisis, strong willpower, Martial Soul Second Awakening, and ample energy.
All the elements were interlinked, and none could be missing.
Because Body Martial Souls are extremely rare, the information itself is scarce. The Second Awakening of a Body Martial Soul may be a first in the history of the continent.
And Huo Wu Xie, unaware of all this, could only anxiously watch Huo Wu gradually light up.
Time passed bit by bit.
An hour passed.
The light emanating from Huo Wu began to gradually dim.
The fierce momentum of her aura also gradually stabilized.
But this high-speed growth lasted a full hour.
Therefore, even though the growth stopped, Huo Wu still exuded a powerful aura.
"What a strong aura. This powerful explosive force is definitely not something a Soul Elder can unleash. What exactly is going on?"
Feeling Huo Wu's changes, Huo Wu Xie revealed an astonished expression.
Just then, Huo Wu suddenly opened her eyes.
The Two Thousand Five Hundred Year Soul Ring was successfully absorbed.
"Xiao Wu!"
Huo Wu Xie rushed to Huo Wu's side, attentively observing her condition.
Huo Wu gazed into Huo Wu Xie's eyes and happily smiled:
"Dad, I succeeded."
Seeing that Huo Wu was fine, Huo Wu Xie finally relaxed completely.
"What exactly happened to you just now? Also, what's going on with your body and Martial Soul?"
Perhaps because of her Body Martial Soul, Huo Wu's height and build were different from ordinary people.
Having just turned eleven, Huo Wu's height had reached about 1.7 meters.
But after absorbing the Soul Ring, Huo Wu's height directly soared to about 1.79 meters.
She almost surpassed Huo Wu Xie.
Besides the changes in her body.
Even more astonishing was the Fire Shadow Martial Soul behind Huo Wu.
The Fire Shadow Martial Soul not only grew taller along with Huo Wu, becoming slender, but its volume also became incredibly large.
The giant phantom, exceeding four meters, stood behind Huo Wu, giving people an extremely strong sense of oppression. In addition, the scorching aura emitted by the Fire Shadow made Huo Wu Xie feel a trace of danger.
Huo Wu also looked back at her Martial Soul.
Although she felt some confusion in her heart, joy occupied most of her mind.
"I'm not sure either, but I feel like my Martial Soul has become stronger."
Looking at the Fire Shadow Martial Soul, Huo Wu had a special feeling, as if there was a special switch in her heart. By controlling the switch, she could control the current surge of power.
With a thought, Huo Wu tried to close the switch.
Instantly, the huge phantom began to shrink gradually, and the intense aura emanating from Huo Wu and the Fire Shadow gradually disappeared.
Finally, under Huo Wu Xie's astonished gaze, the Fire Shadow Martial Soul slowly returned to the same size as Huo Wu.
"Dad, this is the special ability I awakened this time. It's different from a Soul Ring's Soul Skill, but as long as I activate this ability, my combat power will immediately increase by 100%.
With this ability, it's like having an extra amplification-type Soul Skill compared to others. Even my brother is definitely not my opponent now."
Huo Wu's eyes were full of confidence, completely different from the slightly anxious Huo Wu from before.
